Design as Mathematics V2

Needing to brainstorm and concept a lot of UI or logo ideas in a very short amount of time can be a challenge. Lucky for us, there are some rules and conditions which can attribute properties and variables early in the process. This can make doodling fun for developers and designers alike. These ideas are helpful when creating wireframes or a thoughtfully conceived logo with logotype.

The phrasing set rule which leads to the composition set contains the following siblings; five basic relationships, five basic removals and five basic depth cues. The five basic removals; pop-out, hinge-out, slice-off, slide-out and extend-out are especially helpful when in the conceptual phase of the design process. For example, in many ways the design of a logo may be enhanced by this analysis. The manipulation of negative and positive space is key to reaching a great composition.

This allows the designer to explore the symmetrical and asymmetrical traits of the shapes being treated. Distance and emphasis on mass is made easier with the aid of these conditions. Even these basic examples are captivating to a certain extent. The combinations are limitless.
